They are brought up in response to Hyuuga fans constantly trolling in every thread. It would be pure stupidity to compare them to the Hyuugas and vice versa (which Hyuuga fans have also done in the past) and those who do either do so out of response to trolling which has been plenty in this subfora lately or just like to hate on Hyuugas in general
K.
This is how it goes. EMS>MS>3T>Byakugan. It is what it is and this isnt even debatable but what the manga potrays if you havent read it with purple tinted glasses
How is this not debatable? Just because you say so?
Byakugan has plenty of advantages against MS, let alone a mere 3T Sharingan.
Rotation can counter Amaterasu. Even a Chakra Cocoon could.
Jyuken can destroy Chakra, so it can possibly counter Amaterasu as well and Susano'O.
Genjutsu, Tsukyomi, and Shisui's tech w/e it was called are all meaningless against Byakugan.
Byakugan provides enhancements to users reflxes and sensory/tracking capabilities as well as seeing Chakra build up, so that in some ways counters Sharingan Precognition. Not to mention precog doesn't work on Chakra, so Air Palm, Chakra Fields, and OBB could still prove troublesome.
Any Ninjutsu learned by copying can be countered by Jyuken's chakra-destruction abiliites
Any genjutsu can be countered by closing one's eyes.
Any taijutsu can be countered by controlling an opponents momentum using a Chakra field and repelling attacks with OBB/Air Palm.
And Vacuum Attack can easily destroy Susano'O too.
Kamui is really the only un-counterable ability, and that's assuming the Byakugan user doesn't escape it like Deidara or get close enough to make Kamui pointless.
Any oofensive attack by the entire Hyuuga clan put together cant come anywhere close to destroying a PS. A similar attack by Kaguya can demolish the Susanoo. So what would happen if Kaguya used a Susanoo?
PS is made of Chakra. If the user can get in close, Jyuken can destroy it. Kaguya simply destroyed it from a distance.
